Brigid
Hoffman was born and raised in Rapid City and has always been interested
in the arts. She often uses her immediate surroundings as inspiration.
This means that she often paints scenes of what may seem mundane
to some people, but are special to her nonetheless. She is in her
second year of attending the University of South Dakota pursuing
a degree in Communications Studies, but she is leaving her options
open as to what career she desires. Her dream is to write and illustrate
children’s books.

Hubbard
Mill:
A painting done in watercolor and ink of the Hubbard Mill located
in downtown Rapid City. Factories play an important part in her
artwork, especially this one that is such an iconic part of Rapid
City.

Comfort
Inn Billboard:
A painting done in watercolor and ink of a location around Campbell
Street in Rapid City. The abandoned look of this factory paired
with the Comfort Inn Billboard seemed slightly ironic.
